Best value:
Excellent
The guitar I have is a Made in japan, are dated milieud 80 years.
It's a 22 frets, SSH configuration micro, micro unbranded apparent.
The bridge is a Wilkinson vibrato type.
On my guitar the electronics only works when all the knobs are at the bottom, and there a microphone selector 5 positions.
Basswood body
Mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard.
The color is a red to black fade on the shores of beautiful effect (see photo, it's mine!)
I stuck him a 11-52 set of strings it supports very well.
The mechanical oil bath and very accurate, but there are no visible marks.
8 / 10 for the electronic terrible.
UTILIZATION
The handle is extrêmenent end! This is my first guitar but then I tested strat-type guitars, and the handle is more comfortable than these!
The frets on mine are very low (less than 1 mm), it's quite convenient for slides on the handle but this can be annoying for other styles of play (tapping).
The aces in the 22nd frets is very easy.
The weight of the guitar is moderate, very comfortable, neither too light nor too heavy.
I mostly handle configurations Micro + micro micro environment or just double, I think here's a vintage super creamy and its really clearer and stronger with hambucker.
8 / 10 for freight
SOUNDS
Me playing a few rides SONC lair, a lot of Dire Straits or Iron Maiden, the sound is not bad at all but it is true that the pickups are rather vague.
I played with a modeling amp (VOX AD15VT) and a 100W amp head Marshall (MG100 HDFX balanced on an amp and speaker monitoring) and the sounds are pretty good.
7 / 10 to the microphones but are fine for basic use, for those who do not play a lot of metal. I play a little and the sound is not great (the marshall)
OVERALL OPINION
I have this guitar for a year now, I can not part with it but I think passing on an Ibanez with a floyd and 24 cases, to extend my playing style and my palette of songs without inateignables last 2 freight.
It likes the most is the neck of the guitar and its esthetic, what I like least is the electronics and microphones.
I chose this guitar for beginners, also for the esthetic. I tested before copies strat but I preferred by far the, the more sustain is huge!
Excellent value for money to start, without being too demanding on the microphones.
If I had to relearn the guitar, I do it again this choice with his eyes closed.
